Oh Terry, you crack me up each and every time, (thanks for all the fun while learning from the heart) I have often resonated with your perspective and principles and have truly enjoyed every training I ever got to experience with you….so many nuggets of wisdom which I proudly take into my work with couples. Thank You!

I like your ability to step out of the gender boxes that can trap us and speak so directly and empathetically. I like your openness about yourself and your struggles–your 12-step work really shows. I’ve taught your book “I Don’t Want to Talk about It,” and students really respond enthusiastically to it–it helps them develop compassion and understanding for others, and self-acceptance. This talk is another window on you and your work, and enriches my own self-awareness. thank you.

Fantastic! Terry, I feel blessed to have worked with you in your earlier years. Your influence has been significant in my own relationships and my work with others. Thank you for your authenticity and vulnerability. In my opinion, you’re the real deal! (Ha, I did not intend that pun 😌)
I’m sharing this with everyone I know! 🙏🙏🙏

This is’Terry at the best I have seen him ___ Relaxed, enjoying himself and the audience, and looking like he is really having fun.
I have learned how to be a much better couples – and individual – therapist since being turned on to Terry by a a friend having sent me one of his CD box sets
.
I take what on-line trainings I can afford (I work with a sort of ‘rag tag’ bunch).
And hope I am able to attend a training in person.
Last week, I went to a presentation In NYC about utilizing another contract in couples treatment. I was impressed with how much I know.

And I have Terry and his wonderful team to thank for that. Really great seeing Terry laughing and enjoying himself and still educating us.

Thank you X’s 100+! It was so good to see you the most relaxed I have seen you. Shoes off and just there.
This was Terry at his best.
I have all of your CD’s, and take what trainings I can afford. Your personhood, presence, humor and “no BS” approach have helped me – — massively.

And this presentation was an absolute delight!! Plus, it was free. And that IS spiritual.
I’m not well off and work with a ‘rag-tag’ bunch, so can’t spend the big bucks to attend in person your trainings much as I would like to.

Recently, I went to a presentation in NYC re integrating (another construct) into couples tx. And I was surprised by how much I know — I know a hell of a lot. And, I was impressed by what a damn good couples therapist i am. I got that all – and I could say, “oh, he made some contribution”, but NO – I got that all from Mr. Terry Real.

Hi Terry, I totally enjoy this interview. I appreciate the realness & the depth of your wisdom of putting it together coherently. I am looking fwd to sign up as a Therapist Observer when you come to Los Angeles or attend one of your trainings for therapists.

What a gift! Have passsed this video along to clients. I’m a total fan of your vision. The simplicity is elegant. Deep thanks for the wisdom in all your talks and books. They continue to inform my presence as a therapist. I do all my sessions in bear feet!
